How Zapier works
Zapier makes it easy to integrate AWS Lambda with Docusign - no code necessary. See how you can get setup in minutes.
Choose a trigger
A trigger is the event that starts your Zap—like a "New Function" from AWS Lambda.
Add your action
An action happens after the trigger—such as "Add Document to Workspace (For IAM Plans)" in Docusign.
You’re connected!
Zapier seamlessly connects AWS Lambda and Docusign, automating your workflow.
Supported triggers and actions
Zapier helps you create workflows that connect your apps to automate repetitive tasks. A trigger is an event that starts a workflow, and an action is an event a Zap performs.

Frequently Asked Questions about AWS Lambda + Docusign integrations
New to automation with Zapier? You're not alone. Here are some answers to common questions about how Zapier works with AWS Lambda and Docusign
How do I integrate AWS Lambda with DocuSign?
To integrate AWS Lambda with DocuSign, you can use AWS SDKs to create custom functions in Lambda that interact with the DocuSign API. You'll need to configure triggers from services like Amazon S3 or Amazon API Gateway that invoke your Lambda functions based on specific events.
What are the common triggers used in integrating AWS Lambda with DocuSign?
Common triggers include file uploads to an Amazon S3 bucket, HTTP requests through Amazon API Gateway, or scheduled events using Amazon CloudWatch Events. These triggers can be configured to initiate a Lambda function that processes documents through the DocuSign API.
Can I automate document signing using AWS Lambda and DocuSign?
Yes, by setting up a trigger such as an HTTP request via API Gateway, AWS Lambda can execute a function that sends documents for signature through the DocuSign API. You can automate the entire workflow from document creation to sending it for signature.
What programming languages can I use in my AWS Lambda function for integration with DocuSign?
AWS Lambda supports several programming languages including Node.js, Python, Java, C#, and more. You can use any of these supported languages to write your integration logic for interacting with the DocuSign API.
How do I handle errors when working with AWS Lambda and DocuSign?
You should implement error handling within your Lambda functions using try-catch blocks (or equivalent) and carefully manage responses from the DocuSign API. Additionally, enabling CloudWatch logs will help you monitor and troubleshoot errors occurring during execution.
Is it possible to retrieve completed documents from DocuSign using AWS Lambda?
Yes, by invoking a Lambda function based on a specific trigger—like a periodic timer—you can call the DocuSign API to check and retrieve completed documents from specific envelopes or accounts.
What permissions are needed for an IAM role used by an AWS Lambda function integrating with DocuSign?
You will need to assign permissions that allow access to required AWS services such as S3 or API Gateway (if used) as well as network access permissions if making external calls. Additionally, ensure that your environment securely stores necessary credentials for accessing the DocuSign API without hardcoding them in your functions.
